Vancouver Island West Teachers' Union

Vancouver Island West Teachers' Union (VIWTU) is the professional body of  teachers serving the students  in four communities on the West Coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.

We gratefully acknowledge that we live and work on the ancestral lands of the Nuu‐chah‐nulth peoples, Specifically the Ehattesaht, Ka:’yu:’k’t’h/Che:k’tles7et’h’, Mowachaht/Muchalaht, and Nuchatlaht Nations. We honor their enduring connection to this territory and express our deep appreciation for their ongoing stewardship. We are privileged to be welcomed onto this land, where we learn, teach, and collaborate, and we are committed to fostering respectful relationships with the Indigenous communities who have cared for this land since time immemorial.
